Visit Rome
It’s hard to describe Rome in a few words, it seems to have its own gravitational pull that started at the rise of the former Empire and has a timeless continuance. The city itself has attracted artists, inventors and tourists alike for milllenia.
The stunning art and architecture, the grandeur of scale and the lively citizens, guarantees an unforgettable visit, even if you never move from the café on the edge of the piazzas.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, and don’t expect to see it in one. You could spend a full day seeing everything in the ancient centre: the Michelangelo-designed Campidoglio, the Roman Forum, as well as the nearby Colosseum. If its views you’re after, climb the dome of St. Peter’s or admire the panorama from the top of the Spanish Steps at sunset. From these vantage points you will quietly understand why Rome is called the Eternal City.
